Cure The Music - SF Live Art/Fundraiser this Thursday!

Cure The Music is a charity fundraiser blasting off this Thursday, March 25th, at 111 Minna. And the kind folks organizing the event asked yours truly to come out and rock the live painting action!

Some incredible DJ's and bands will be providing the soundtrack for the evening. Everything I make that night will be sold off, silent auction style. There will also be raffle tickets sold for a variety of prizes, donated by some fine local businesses (including Capcom, Electronic Arts, and Mission: Comics & Art). All proceeds will go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Word booty!

So come down and get'cha groove on, get'cha drink on, get some original art and get funky for a damn good cause! For more info, peep the Cure The Music blog and their Facebook event page.
